Screenshot of the Forgotten Password page for the college.

3 As a security measure an email will then be sent to your personal email address to confirm that you made the request to reset your password

Click on the link to confirm you want to reset your password

4 A few minutes later you will receive another email with your new password.

Please note that this will have reset your password for Teams, Outlook, Office 365, LearnNet and DigiSkills so you may need to update your saved passwords on your devices.

Troubleshooting

New Password not being accepted

If you are copying the new password from the email and then pasting it into the form, be aware that it can sometimes pick up extra white space which the system sees as part of the password.
Try typing in the password instead.

If your email is correct and you still have not received an email please put a ticket in with digitalservices@dumgal.ac.uk including your student ID number and any error messages you received.

Email has not arrived

If you have not received either email, first check with Student Records (strec@dumgal.ac.uk) that your email on file is correct.

Error Messages

Please report any error messages to digitalservices@dumgal.ac.uk so Digital Services can investigate.
